Learning goals

  • We are learning to recognise and explain the connection between multiplication and division as inverse operations and use this to develop families of number facts.
  • We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving multiplication and division, using the properties of numbers and operations.
  • We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving multiplication and division and identify equivalent number sentences involving multiplication and division.
  • We are learning to create and use algorithms using multiple steps to experiment with factors, multiples and divisibility and identify and describe emerging patterns.

Differentiation

Extensions

After students have tried a number of times for 5 in a row, have them do one horizontal and one vertical line, or a diagonal line, all four corners, or an X. Do they work through the problems one at a time, randomly, or look at the answer they need and find a question to match?
